In the second match for a similar stake by latteens the ‘Vampire’ (Mr. Everett), the ‘Enchantress’ (Mr. Green), and the ‘Merlin’ (Mr. Humfrey) started, and continued in the order named to the close. The ‘frolicers’ then commenced their homeward journey, and in the midst of music and song all arrived safely, we believe, at the Bridge Foot, after spending a convivial, if not a dignified, half day on the stream. The frolic, however, in the absence of official support, is shorn of its ancient splendour.” August 13th.—The “Order of Precedence of the members of the Council” had been printed.
